Reggie Miller Returns to Bankers Life Fieldhouse

by Matt Velazquez | January 11, 2013

Over the years, Reggie Miller and the Pacers had many memorable moments against the New York Knicks. On Thursday night, Miller, who spent all of his 18 seasons in Indiana and was recently inducted into the Hall of Fame, returned to Bankers Life Fieldhouse as a TNT commentator for Indiana's game against New York.

The atmosphere in the Fieldhouse was electric, because of the game - which the Pacers won, 81-76, for their ninth consecutive home victory - as well as Miller's presence. Midway through the first quarter, a video tribute to Miller played on the big screen, bringing the crowd to its feet and eliciting chants of "REG-GIE, REG-GIE!"

Miller acknowledged the crowd from his announcers table, and after the game took time to sign a few autographs for the Pacers faithful who had stayed around waiting for him to finish his duties for TNT. He also shared these tweets about the game and being back in Indianapolis.

What a great evening at the Fieldhouse, want everyone to know I FELT THE LOVE!! Thanks to everyone wearing the 31 jersey and who made signs.
